Doubt about iptables host config
by Gianluca Cecchi 03 Oct '17

03 Oct '17

Hello, I have read this interesting blog post https://www.ovirt.org/blog/2016/12/extension-iptables-rules-oVirt-hosts/ In my case, to allow incoming connections from Nagios server to connect to Nagios nrpe daemon installed on hosts I have run [root@ovmgr1 ~]# engine-config --set IPTablesConfigSiteCustom=' > -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 5666 -s 10.4.5.99/32 -m comment --comment "Nagios NRPE daemon" -j ACCEPT > ' [root@ovmgr1 ~]# and systemctl restart ovirt-engine BTW: the link above misses the final ' apex at the end of the similar command in the given example On my oVirt running host (CentOS 7.4) in the mean time I have run [g.cecchi@ov300 ~]$ sudo iptables -I INPUT 16 -p tcp --dport 5666 -s 10.4.5.99/32 -m comment --comment "Nagios NRPE daemon" -j ACCEPT In fact the current "reject-with icmp-host-prohibited" was line 16 and I have inserted it right before. So far so good. I have a doubt if, in case of host put into maintenance and then reactivated, or rebooted, the rule will remain. Or do I have anyway to put any line in any file on host to set it persistently? I wouldn't like to go and reinstall it only to statically set a new iptables rule. Thanks, Gianluca

My Engine host has the "management" and "public" networks. My Hypervisor hosts have the "BMC/ilo", "management", and "storage" networks. Is there a reason why I should add "public" on the hypervisors? Is there a reason why I may need "BMC/ilo" or "storage" on the Engine hos= t?

--=_d5a03c9f-d720-4690-b3f7-196f2e084694 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I just installed a hosted engine based four nodes cluster to glustered storage. It seems to working fine, but I have some question about it. - I would like to make an own cluster and datacenter. Is it possible to remove a host and re-add to an another cluster while it is running the hosted engine? - Is it possible to remove default datacenter without any problems? - I have a productive ovirt cluter that is based on 3.5 series. It is using a shared nfs storage. Is it possible to migrate VMs from 3.5 to 4.1 with detach shared storage from the old cluster and attach it to the new cluster? - If yes what will happend with the VM properies? For example mac addresses, limits, etc. Those will be migrated or not?

Guess no one wants to stick around late on a Friday night. :-D I'm an ovirt newb here. I've been going through the docs setting up 4.1 on Scientific Linux 7.4. For the most part everything is going well once I learn how to do it. I'm, however, stuck on power management. I have multiple networks: 192.168.1.x is my BMC/ilo network. The security team wants as few entry points into this as possible and wants as much segregation as possible. 192.168.2.x is my "management" access network. For my other machines on this network this means admin-SSH/rsyslog/SaltStack configuration management/ect. 192.168.3.x is my high speed network where my NFS storage sits and applications that need the bandwidth do their thing. 10.10.86.x is my "public" access All networks are configured on the Host network settings. Mostly confident I got it right...at least each network/IP matches the right interface. ;-) Right now I only have the engine server and one hyper-visor. On either host I can ssh into the command line and run fence_ipmilan -a 192.168.1.x -l USER -p PASS -o status -v -P" it works, all is good. However, when I try to add it in the ovirt interface I get an error. :-/ Edit Host -> Power Management: Address: 192.168.1.14 User Name: root Password: SorryCantTellYou Type: ipmilan Options: <blank> Test Test failed: Failed to run fence status-check on host '192.168.2.14'. No other host was available to serve as proxy for the operation. Yes, same host because I only have one right now. :-) Any help or guidance would be much appreciated. In the meantime I'm going back to the docs to poke at a few other things I need to figure out. :-) Thanks! ~Stack~ --QtNjKESroum0Gs4B16RTXPJnq400V1QDU-- --OnEhT75wdmSi56KelkEfSHNlc4EOmbWar Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJZzqxCAAoJELkej+ysXJPmkn8P/i7sx6DP5aSOejTEvOzq45jc uTYNnoAqniDK/do47z2ojjB0+Oa6czExR7IqyzAzz9+pFEMZlRttxVwQ0XyEj+4t Fw44htR1PhU+YnNQm4fgEo04P7X72qEzdgeMgA/vVVp6chpw0tSG5/bLosrX/yJC NsUF4X0yhnfsCtLZ9Tw78S392OqIQ1iyx12Brmxtip0c97JenMXxXXrxPoUHDFcR T+mqVf7jnC+VxpRj0x5qU+JAOr05oje9coAgbDE6MhWaL6sjClEwhsi5VOU47he9 JcBjKbye4bRHIlzkgpg01Ge0m5fQ4FclJl9wnV4V5vX1Rkuol61wiPQ6SXd/CPy2 PiVsbvX3WloealAupANhaaYG93QPpQsmrw/6Ew/Finlsz6CNfg2VZHbzBGc79QV6 trLMhu+fw7Hsi/lmiU9Rkkmi8OOSgtapMkA283ft1wnBr7gYTyPZwQsp2chO66X5 QZvrRC64nBv9QcVswawWruWSIsETWNNRg7NltEiy8CKBDUsaJ4vJftXzEuHe++ML 2tgOaVRK9nikf6C5OlGPf2TVTVuBRyXGQTVQhGmPVx40499B5sUaen3+dyDHy8QW qLWi6iPiN0YGZkzh/inl/jT4aowQlZEZTfT3KpnH5tyZQ018rcJBQnKFBiTwi5aM /KzRHvKBIvKpjiIREQ7V =kxQZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --OnEhT75wdmSi56KelkEfSHNlc4EOmbWar--

Finally, I ended up turning everything into maintenance mode, then activating just it, and I was able to make it the SPM. I was then able to bring everything up.

libvirt: XML-RPC error : authentication failed: Failed to start SASL
by Ozan Uzun 02 Oct '17

02 Oct '17

Hello, Today I updated my ovirt engine v3.5 and all my hosts on one datacenter (centos 7.4 ones). and suddenly my vdsm and vdsm-network services stopped working. btw: My other DC is centos 6 based (managed from the same ovirt engine), everything works just fine there. vdsm fails dependent on vdsm-network service, with lots of RPC error. I tried to configure vdsm-tool configure --force, deleted everything (vdsm-libvirt), reinstalled. Could not make it work. My logs are filled with the follogin Sep 18 23:06:01 node6 python[5340]: GSSAPI Error: Unspecified GSS failure.

Currenty everything is down. I am ok to install a new ovirt engine if somehow I can restore my virtual servers. I can also split centos 6 and centos 7 ovirt engine's.

Having issue with external IPA

Hello guys, I'm having problem with adding users from my FreeIPA server to oVirt. 1. Status of ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap-setup is success with RHDS 2. I cannot add IPA users in oVirt webadmin panel 3. In oVirt web admin panel it says "Error while executing action AddUser: Internal Engine Error" What will be the problem or is it a bug? Is there any suggestion of how do it make it work? in the engine.log it says; 2017-10-01 17:30:52,436+06 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.aaa.AddUserCommand] (default task-113) [bf5822eb-39da-49e5-b2ab-9865f71346a3] Transaction rolled-back for command 'org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.aaa.AddUserCommand'. 2017-10-01 17:30:52,459+06 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker.auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector] (default task-113) [bf5822eb-39da-49e5-b2ab-9865f71346a3] EVENT_ID: USER_FAILED_ADD_ADUSER(327), Correlation ID: bf5822eb-39da-49e5-b2ab-9865f71346a3, Call Stack: null, Custom ID: null, Custom Event ID: -1, Message: Failed to add User 'mgorca' to the system. in cyberwings.local.properties ovirt.engine.extension.name = cyberwings.local ovirt.engine.extension.bindings.method = jbossmodule ovirt.engine.extension.binding.jbossmodule.module = org.ovirt.engine-extensions.aaa.ldap ovirt.engine.extension.binding.jbossmodule.class = org.ovirt.engineextensions.aaa.ldap.AuthzExtension ovirt.engine.extension.provides = org.ovirt.engine.api.extensions.aaa.Authz config.profile.file.1 = ../aaa/cyberwings.local.properties config.globals.baseDN.simple_baseDN = dc=cyberwings,dc=local in cyberwings.local-authn.properties ovirt.engine.extension.name = cyberwings.local-authn ovirt.engine.extension.bindings.method = jbossmodule ovirt.engine.extension.binding.jbossmodule.module = org.ovirt.engine-extensions.aaa.ldap ovirt.engine.extension.binding.jbossmodule.class = org.ovirt.engineextensions.aaa.ldap.AuthnExtension ovirt.engine.extension.provides = org.ovirt.engine.api.extensions.aaa.Authn ovirt.engine.aaa.authn.profile.name = cyberwings.local ovirt.engine.aaa.authn.authz.plugin = cyberwings.local config.profile.file.1 = ../aaa/cyberwings.local.properties config.globals.baseDN.simple_baseDN = dc=cyberwings,dc=local -- Yan Naing Myint CEO Server & Network Engineer Cyber Wings Co., Ltd http://cyberwings.asia 09799950510

For my data domain, I have one NFS server with a large RAID filesystem (9 TB). I'm only using 2 TB of that at the moment. Today, my NFS server hung with the following error: > xfs: possible memory allocation deadlock in kmem_alloc All 4 virtualization hosts of course had problems since there was no longer any storage. In the end, it seems like the problem is related to XFS fragmentation... I read this great blog here: https://blog.codecentric.de/en/2017/04/xfs-possible-memory-allocation-deadl… In short, I tried this: # xfs_db -r -c "frag -f" /dev/sdb1 actual 4314253, ideal 43107, fragmentation factor 99.00% Apparently the fragmentation factor doesn't mean much, but the fact that "actual" number of extents is considerably higher than "ideal" extents seems that it may be the problem. I saw that many of my virtual disks that are written to a lot have, of course, a lot of extents... For example, on our main web server disk image, there were 247,597 extents alone! I took the web server down, and ran the XFS defrag command on the disk... # xfs_fsr -v 9a634692-1302-471f-a92e-c978b2b67fd0 9a634692-1302-471f-a92e-c978b2b67fd0 extents before:247597 after:429 DONE 9a634692-1302-471f-a92e-c978b2b67fd0 247,597 before and 429 after! WOW! Are virtual disks a problem with XFS? Why isn't this memory allocation deadlock issue more prevalent. I do see this article mentioned on many web posts. I don't specifically see any recommendation to *not* use XFS for the data domain though. I was running CentOS 7.3 on the file server, but before rebooting the server, I upgraded to the latest kernel and CentOS 7.4 in the hopes that if there was a kernel issue, that this would solve it. I took a few virtual systems down, and ran the defrag on the disks. However, with over 30 virtual systems, I don't really want to do this individually. I was wondering if I could run xfs_fsr on all the disks LIVE? It says in the manual that you can run it live, but I can't see how this would be good when a system is using that disk, and I don't want to deal with major corruption across the board. Any thoughts? Thanks, Jason.
